Our village, Brightwell-cum-Sotwell, is on the outskirts of the town of Wallingford. Wallingford is a brisk 30-minute walk away. Further afield Didcot has good rail links to London, and it's a short drive to Oxford, one of the most famous University towns in the world.
The Bach Centre is in the Sotwell half of Brightwell-cum-Sotwell. It is a small village with just one pub and one shop, but there are a few local people who offer bed-and-breakfast accommodation. The following are within walking distance of the Bach Centre.
